Direct Events not passing control scope to client-side environment

Found: 7.1.0
Ext.NET forum thread:

Generated client-side code is not including a required control: this argument to Ext.net.directRequest() calls.

The following code in Ext.NET 5:

<ext:button runat="server" text="Toast 2">
 <directEvents>
 <click OnEvent="Button2_Click">
 <extraParams>
 <ext:Parameter name="label" value="function() { return this.text; }" mode="Raw" />
 </extraParams>
 </click>
 </directEvents>
</ext:button>

Results in:

Ext.create("Ext.button.Button", {
 id: "ctl03",
 renderTo: "App.ctl03_Container",
 text: "Toast 2",
 directEvents: {
 click: {
 fn: function (item, e) {
 Ext.net.directRequest({
 extraParams: {
 "label": function () {
 return this.text;
 }
 },
 control: this
 });
 }
 }
 }
});

In Ext.NET 7 though, the button definition:

<ext-button text="Toast 2">
 <directEvents>
 <click actionName="Button2_Click">
 <extraParams>
 <ext-add key="label" value="function() { return this.text; }" mode="Raw" />
 </extraParams>
 </click>
 </directEvents>
</ext-button>

Is generating:

Ext.create("Ext.button.Button", {
 directEvents: {
 click: {
 fn: function (item, e) {
 Ext.net.directRequest({
 action: "click",
 cleanRequest: true,
 extraParams: {
 label: function () {
 return this.text;
 }
 }
 });
 }
 }
 },
 id: "ctl02",
 renderTo: "App.ctl02_Container",
 text: "Toast 2"
});

Then, this in the direct event's extraParams scope becomes the javascript Window object, and it is not possible to reliably get data from the related component during pre- and post- direct event client-side tasks.
